3D Archery Target Cover

ABSTRACT

With proper care this cover will continue to protect your valuable 3D target for years. It is UV resistant and water resistant. These are the main two elements that cause damage to 3D targets. 
     We have included two three foot nylon cords to be used for securing your cover to your target. You can use them by tying off to a stake from the top loops on your cover, or by using the lower loops and tying off directly to the legs. 
     The cover will fit most targets up to 45″ long. You may need to remove the horns when taking on and off the cover. However, most will fit through the hole with cinch down cord. This hole also allows moisture to escape from inside the cover. 
     Please note: The color of your target cover may fade after long periods in direct sunlight. However, this will not affect the performance of your target cover. Glenrock Archery Products recommends periodic treatments with Nickwax “Tent and Gear Solar Proof”. This spray-on protector works on all weatherproof textiles and increases water repellency and UV protection. If you will not be using your target for extended periods of time, Glenrock Archery Products recommends that you store your target and 3D Archery Target Cover in a cool, dry place to extend the life of each product.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

As an avid archery hunter, I was very frustrated having to replace myexpensive 3D Targets on a yearly basis. I found that very littleexposure to the sun and rain made them rot and hardened them so that itwas extremely difficult to remove the arrows. I began using a tarp tocover them and this resolved problem. However, due to the shape of thebody and horns on the head, a tarp is very difficult to keep in place.It also damages the horns and the area where they are attached.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The 3D Archery Target Cover is the first of its kind. It is a coverdesigned exclusively for 3D Archery Targets. It will prolong the life of3D archery targets by protecting them from the elements. It isespecially designed to fit over these targets while still allowingmoisture to escape. It is easy to take on and off and stays in placeeven in high wind and rain.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE DRAWING

This view shows the 3D Archery Target Cover from a frontal side view. Itshows the tie down loops on the front and back of the cover used forsecuring the cover with the included rope. It also shows the hole on thetop of the cover where the head of the target will be protruding whilethe cover is in place. The hole has a draw cord which will enable it tobe cinched tight around the neck of the target. The hole on the top ofthe cover will allow moisture to escape and evaporate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION:

The 3D archery Target Cover is an outdoor cover designed to prolong thelife of archery 3D targets. It is UV and water resistant. It easily fitsover the head and horns of 3D targets. It is secured with two ropes thatare included. It can be tied off two different ways with the attachedloops. It stands up to heavy wind and rain. It is 45″ long×12″ wide and25″ tall. This will fit most deer, antelope and bear targets. It isolive drab in color. Two 36″ pieces of rope are included for tying down.Two tie down loops are attached on the front and back of the cover. Itis made of 10.6 oz polyester fabric with polyurethane coating.

1. The target cover will significantly prolong the life of 3D archerytargets that are stored outside.
